Description
Hey there 👋
I'm in the process of adding types to pytest-mypy, which integrates with xdist in part via the pytest_configure_node hook.
The type for the node parameter is available from xdist.workermanage, but mypy still emits the following error:
error: Skipping analyzing "xdist.workermanage": module is installed, but missing library stubs or py.typed marker [import-untyped]
note: See https://mypy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/running_mypy.html#missing-imports
I see lots of typing work was done to xdist in 3.6.0 (https://github.com/pytest-dev/pytest-xdist/pull/1065).
Could we add a py.typed file to allow downstreams to take advantage of it too?

Research direction
Start by checking how the pytest-xdist package is laid out and how its packaging metadata includes package files. Confirm the existing typing work from the 3.6.0 release, then add the requested py.typed marker and verify that downstream mypy can analyze xdist.workermanage without the missing-marker error.
